1) Twice a number decreased by four is 32.

Mathematics
1 answer:
LUCKY_DIMON [66]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Twice a number becomes 2x, decreased by 4 becomes -4, and combined those terms equal 32.

2x - 4 = 32

2x - 4 + 4 = 32 + 4  (isolate the variable)

2x = 36

x = 18

Need help solving this math problems
AVprozaik [17]

1) If <em>x</em> is the number of years Naicul works, then the corporate job would earn him

49600<em>x</em> + 2000

dollars, while the teaching job would earn

50000<em>x</em>

dollars. Solve for <em>x</em> such that these two earnings are equal:

49600<em>x</em> + 2000 = 50000<em>x</em>

400<em>x</em> = 2000

<em>x</em> = 5

2) a) At a speed of 6.7 m/s, DJ would finish the race in

(100 m) / (6.7 m/s) ≈ 14.93 s

2) b) If DJ is given a headstart of <em>y</em> seconds, then Usain finishes the race in (9.58 + <em>y</em>) seconds. Solve for <em>y</em> such that this time matches DJ's time from part (a) :

14.93 s = (9.58 + <em>y</em>) s

<em>y</em> ≈ 5.35 s

What is the maximum number of times two planes can intersect? What is the minimum number of times they can intersect?
nordsb [41]
The minimum number of times two planes can intersect is zero, because if the planes are parallel to each other, they will never intersect. we can take the example of floor and roof, both are parallel to each other and no intersection. If the two planes are in same plane the maximum number of times they can intersect is infinite for example if we consider a line we can intersect at infinite points.
